Thanks so much, and best of luck to you this year.

Hi Ryan. Hope all is well!!
Yes, it is a Powerbox Dual Digi Switch. Similar to the very popular Digi switch but with dual switch, dual voltage regulators at 7.4V, dual input and output. The switch weighs 35 grams with wires and I run two small 430 mah TP batteries that gets me about 6-7 flights.
Here is a link. I just get mine from Duralite.

The another nice feature is when the batteries are getting low the lights turn orange and when they are very low they flash red. Yes, it is a bit heavier but it is nice knowing there are two of everything. I have lost a plane to a bad fairly new TP 900 pack. My brother runs the same switch with two batteries but instead of one receiver he runs two receivers.
